Betty scored 74% on her final exam. If each question was worth 2 points and there were 140 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Betty answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
37
39
42
52

Solution

Betty scored 74% on the test meaning she earned 74% of the possible points on the test. There were 140 possible points on the test so she earned 140 x 0.74 = 104 points. Each question is worth 2 points so she got \( \frac{104}{2} \) = 52 questions right.


2

4! = ?

84% Answer Correctly

3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


3

What is (c2)3?

79% Answer Correctly
c
3c2
c6
c5

Solution

To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:

(c2)3
c(2 * 3)
c6


4

What is \( \frac{3c^6}{4c^4} \)?

60% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{3}{4}\)c10
\(\frac{3}{4}\)c2
\(\frac{3}{4}\)c24
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)c2

Solution

To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

\( \frac{3c^6}{4c^4} \)
\( \frac{3}{4} \) c(6 - 4)
\(\frac{3}{4}\)c2


5

Damon loaned Christine $100 at an annual interest rate of 5%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$104
$103
$105
$102

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $100
i = 0.05 x $100

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $100 + $5
total = $105
